Istanbul will have you checking two continents off your bucket list!
Stretching from the banks of the Bosphorus River, one side of the city is situated in Europe and the other in Asia.
Visit Topkapi Palace with its fairy tale turrets and treasures, or travel under the city streets down into the Byzantine Basilica Cistern where you’ll marvel at 336 ancient columns.
Sit on a bench in the middle of Sultanahmet Square with the Blue Mosque on one side of you and Hagia Sophia on the other and wait for the ezan, or Islamic call to prayer, to wash over you like a wave of faith.
Shopping, and not just for those famous Turkish rugs, is a signature experience of Istanbul. The fun of haggling and drinking coffee with shopkeepers will have you honing skills and meeting locals as you try spices, lamps, and all flavors of Turkish delight an ice cream.
